It is been only 6 years with 100% city and highway driving and dealer informed me that bushings are already cracking and need to be replaced soon. Car is in mint very good conditions with no other issues.
Noticed clunking noise from rear of car when going over sharp bumps. Inspecting rear suspension revealed the rear driver side coil spring is broken near the bottom of the coil. Judging by amount of rust on the broken ends this has been broken for some time. Searching online this is a common issue for this generation Odyssey, and Honda do not have replacement springs in stock, with estimated wait time for parts of many months.
Driver Rear suspension coil spring broke in half while vehicle was parked. I just got out of the van and there was a loud nose and the van dropped a few inches If I was driving at the time I could have lost control and crashed. Has not been inspected Is unavailable for inspection because no replacement part available from Honda part is on back order Multiple reports online of the same part breaking sooner. Has not been confirmed by the dealer as dealer doesn't have the part to replace it with
I took the van into Honda and they said the back 2 rear springs were broken. But the parts (springs) were on back order. I called dealers all over Ontario, New York and Virginia(because I have family in those states) and discovered that none of them had the part or that if they did they were not allowed to sell them because they had a line up of customers that needed them. One dealer, before I even gave the part number, stopped me and said your calling about the rear springs because they had so many inquiries. To me this sounds like there is an issue with the rear springs for Honda odyssey from the year 2018-2020 and that this should be a recalled item. No way is it a coincidence that there no springs available because of a random part shortage. It’s more likely it’s a poorly manufactured part and they are all breaking 5-7 years in to their life span. I believe this should be investigated as Honda probably knows the part is defective. This should be a part that is recalled and the cost of repair covered by Honda. Currently my odyssey can’t e driven for safety reasons until the parts (spring) comes in which could be month. I can give you the dealers I contacted and part number.
While driving on highway rear Left spring which is a ver heavy duty spring broke into pieces without any accident but could have caused catastrophic event. This needs to be investigated as per even dealer said this is very unusual , this sprng coil never breaks and could cause death. This is a metallic issue with Mattel.

CAR AUTOMATICALLY SHIFTS THE TRANSMISSION TO THE PARK POSITION WHILE IN MOTION; BRAKES WERE LOCKED AUTOMATICALLY AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD.
1. 2ND ROW DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS DO NOT "LOCK" INTO PLACE WHEN FOLDED FORWARD, CREATING A "FREE FLYING" SEAT WHEN DRIVING/IN MOTION AND AN ENTRAPMENT ISSUE WHEN PARKED FOR 3RD ROW PASSENGERS ATTEMPTING TO EXIT THE 3RD ROW. THIS IS SPECIALLY DANGEROUS ON A HILL. MY 3 YEAR OLD HAS BEEN HIT AND INJURED BY THE SEAT ON A SEVERAL OCCASIONS. 2. ENGINE LURCHES AND STALLS WHILE IN MOTION. STALLING CAUSES POTENTIAL RISK FOR ACCIDENT. 3. DRIVER AND PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT OPEN ON OCCASION. THIS MEANS GETTING 2ND AND 3RD ROW PASSENGERS OUT OF TRUNK OR CLIMBING THROUGH TO DRIVER/PASSENGER SEAT. ALL OF THESE HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALERSHIP, THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE 1 AND 3. HAD NO SOLUTION FOR #2 (A SIMPLE LOCKING ADDITION TO THE SEAT FOOTING WOULD FIX #2, TOYOTA SIENNA'S LOCK ON PLACE)
